Frequently Asked Questions
Natural fibers generally absorb slightly higher frequencies more effectively than mineral wool, offering a warmer sound; however, mineral wool often performs better at lower frequencies, so it's a trade-off.
The frame is surprisingly strong, but extreme humidity or moisture could potentially cause warping over time, so avoid direct exposure.
HOFA typically offers replacement covers, but availability might depend on current production runs; contacting HOFA directly is the best way to ensure a match.
